my nimh cant last even 10 min

hi, i want to start drifting, but dont know what is good or not, so here goes...
planning to get street jam r31 kit, and sanwa mt4...
but dont know what are the best for the motor and other things...

is it possible to get all of it myb more or less then 2000???

havent change to brushless motor yet? if not u can use nimh 5000, but be sure to check motor temp every 10 minutes. brushed motor not very good with the temp.


or go brushless. then use LiPo. can last about 1hour

wait bajet in, then go brushless, esc, lipo

u talking about the original street jam, or clone from TEH-R31?
original used around 600-900, clone around 200 kit only.
electronics around 500 (fast charger, LiPo, motor, ESC, servo)
MT4 new around 650 (hard to get 2nd hand)

Just start? I suggest get something cheap first, then practice your skills, rather than one shot buying so expensive stuff

ya, i'm talking the original street jam, i am thinking to buy one shot because i think if i buy the clone one, and many other things i need to repair later on, and when the times comes i want to upgrade, i spend more...

Here's my break down (Some may not agree with it)

- RTR car (I chose the Vantex X-ray) - RM350 (If you want to play CS later, then opt for the TEH-R31, around RM340 RTR)
- ESC+Brushless - ± RM 300
- LiPo Battery - ± RM150
- FlySky GT3B - ± RM150
- Balance Charger - ± RM150

Total : ± RM1100

The price excludes aftermarket rims, tires,bodyshells and accessories, which all of us would change sooner or later

That should keep you playing for some time. As for parts, 416 and xray also a lot parts. Just worry about the electronics. Hence in my estimation, most are replaced, saved for the servo

thanks for the estimation there, so bassically it is around my estimation also for the electronics, it becomes exp just because if i take the r31 kit which is rm800, and if i want to spent on some good Tx for sanwa mt4 around Rm650...
and what motor is good?? i mean, 9T motor?? 7.5T motor?? sensored??

For beginners, like I said, is the Sanwa really necessary?

err.. i'm a beginner and use MT4.. good TX n RX is a big diff..

ok, let put the sanwa aside, how about the motor?? 9T? 7.5T?? sensored??

sensored better. i will leave the t rating to the pro..i noob

i've use sensorless before.. last month i chg to sensored brushless system.. the diff is i feel that the sensorless have delay and lag.. sometimes it feels like miss throttle because of the delay.. i use 10.5T motor for sensored..

ok, btw, thanks man for the advice.... if u noob, i'm noobest... lol... thanks btw..

means 9.5t also can..avoid 5.5t lo?

dun say like dat.. i noob also.. but in the process i learn a lot.. the lower the T no. means that the motor has more top speed power (if im not mistaken) the higher the T no. means the motor has more torque (if im not mistaken again)
10.5T is the most common T use by RC drifter coz i think it balance between high RPM and torque (if im not mistaken also la)

oooo, i think it should sound correct..
i read about this before but not that sure, haha..

Hmm, still got loads to learn

Any ESC+Brushless combo to recommend? Below RM300. Me poorfag

Saw these 3 that interests me

Ezrun 9t Combo ESC35a
ZTW 5.5t Combo ESC60A
Ezrun Brushless Victory 5.5t Combo ESC60A
